3. It’s simple – Managing your project in a given time
duration makes you EFFECTIVE.
Effectiveness IS DOING the
things that get you
CLOSER to your GOAL in a
given time duration.
5. Belief – WHY are we doing this project?
- Why are we doing this?
- Vision and defining team Purpose
- What is the end goal?
- Top 3 priorities
6. How to define a team purpose?
Questions you can ask yourself and the team:
- How is our project contributing to our overall
LC vision?
- What would be missing without this project?
- What is the impact “we as a team together”
want to achieve?
7. Your Team Purpose needs to
guide the team and you
throughout the term. The
importance of a task is
determined by whether it brings
you closer to your purpose or
not.
8. END goals lead you to MEAN goals
and not the other way around.
End Goal is what you need to achieve.
Example:
20 oGCDP realizations from across 2 universities
Means Goals (Top 3 priorities)
- Marketing and effective promotion – with tangible
goals to measure effectiveness
- EP Preparation – Through Expectation setting and EPIC
Delivery
- IR and 80 percent delivery rate.
12. Timeline Creation
Example – 50 oGCDP Eps realized by May
30th – Term starts 1st Feb
• By when do these forms need to be matched? How
many forms need to be matched?
• For these forms to be matched by this date, how
many raises do I need on the system and by when?
• What are the key activities the team needs to do in
order to get the raises up by this date? And timelines
for the same.
13. Now create week wise timelines.
• What do your timelines need to include?
- Week wise – Number of team
meetings, appointments, goal that needs to be
achieved at the end of every single week. Along
with a performance tracker for the team.

1. Define your synergy points clearly
2. Include synergy timelines within your project plan
3. Ensure you do a quick meeting at the beginning of the project so the synergy
responsibles are on board and have the same plan and bottom line
4. Define very clearly WHO is doing what. Eg: Promotion material and design –
marketing, Selling and appointments – oGCDP raising team.
17. Crisis Management
With better planning, improved
efficiency, and increased
productivity, the number of crises
you encounter should decline.
However, you can’t plan for
everything, so in this module we’ll
look at what to do when a crisis does
occur.
In a crisis, be
aware of the
danger, but
recognize the
opportunity.

18. When the Storm Hits
Who else needs to know about this?
What events will this impact?
What will happen next?
What were the causes?
What happened?
19. Creating a Plan
Identify the problem
Decide on a solution
Break it down into parts
Create a timeline
20. Executing the Plan
Continue evaluating the plan working
Stay organized and on top of events
Deliver communication to others
The key to successfully handling a crisis is to move quickly and decisively, but carefully.
Once you have gathered the data, it’s time to create a plan. The best approach is to identify the problem, decide on a solution, break it down into parts, and create a timeline.
In this example, your manager is probably pretty anxious to get that report!
In the case of illness, for example, you could prepare a short contingency plan indicating who will be responsible for your correspondence, projects, and general responsibilities in case you are ill for an extended period. Make sure you share these plans with the appropriate people so that they can be prepared as well.
